Low‐Dose H2O2 Priming Improves Performance Under Simulated Marine Heatwave Conditions in a Coastal Bivalve [PDF]
Global ChallengesMarine heatwaves are intensifying under climate change, imposing thermal extremes on marine ecosystems. Priming, a process in which prior sublethal exposure shapes responses, is increasingly recognized as a key mechanism underlying tolerance to ...

Large and transient positive temperature anomalies in Washington’s coastal nearshore waters during the 2013–2015 northeast Pacific marine heatwave [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2023 The northern portion of Washington’s outer coast—known locally as the Olympic coast—is a dynamic region characterized by seasonal upwelling that predominates during summer interrupted by occasional periods of downwelling. We examined spring-to-fall water

Coral histology reveals consistent declines in tissue integrity during a marine heatwave despite differences in bleaching severity [PDF]
PeerJMarine heatwaves are starting to occur several times a decade, yet we do not understand the effect this has on corals across biological scales. This study combines tissue-, organism-, and community-level analyses to investigate the effects of a marine ...

Evidence of rare occurrences of the Phoenix effect in the Hawaiian corals Porites compressa and Montipora capitata following mortality induced by a marine heatwave [PDF]
PeerJCoral bleaching is a common stress response to extreme temperatures experienced during marine heatwaves. Bleached corals are left vulnerable without the nutritional support of their algal symbionts, and can often suffer partial or complete mortality ...

Impact of an unprecedented marine heatwave on extremely hot summer over Northern Japan in 2023 [PDF]
Scientific ReportsPossible local influence of an extreme marine heatwave is investigated on unprecedentedly hot summer around northern Japan in 2023. Sea-surface temperatures (SSTs) and subsurface ocean temperatures around northern Japan were also unprecedentedly high in ...

Annual Review of Marine Science, 2021 Ocean temperature variability is a fundamental component of the Earth's climate system, and extremes in this variability affect the health of marine ecosystems around the world. The study of marine heatwaves has emerged as a rapidly growing field of research, given notable extreme warm-water events that have occurred against a background trend of ...
